Do you have a craft room?

[Shandeh]

I have a craft room. First, my craft room was in a larger bedroom which wasn't being used. It was pink and peach, and I bought curtains on eBay just to match.



Here I was, laying out a sewing pattern on my fold-away cutting table:


And here was my knitting chair:


Then, we needed the big room for storage, because we were emptying a storage unit we didn't want to pay for anymore.

So, I moved my craft room to the smaller bedroom that used to be our storage room. The walls in there are blue, and it doesn't look bad.

My knitting books and magazines are all in one bookcase, with my knitting needles stored on top.


My yarn is stored in big plastic drawers that pull out from the storage unit, and my computer just fits in the corner by the closet.


The bad part is that my spinning wheel no longer fits in the craft room. The good part is that the spinning wheel looks GREAT in our living room!

I can think of nothing cooler than to have a Dalek in my livingroom. I want one!!!

I'm proud of him really, and it's actually suprisingly fun scaring the s**t out the children when they visit!

Those fabric bowls you have made are beautiful. My Step-mum wants me to make her one of those, but they look too complicated to me. I have an embrodiery machine. (It was my Nan's she gave it to me when she went into a home) I've not used it, I'm too scared!

Fabric bowls are real easy. You use just a sewing machine with a zig zag stitch.
You can do them,

I want a Dalek! Well, no, I guess it would eliminate my yarn space. :thinking: I have an antique chest that I keep my yarn in. The needles have been in a bucket and I need to do something to organize them. And my most recent yarn purchase, for two sweaters, has exceeded chest capacity. It sits in the living room, next to the stairs.

Then the sewing machine is in a corner of the dining room along with boxes of fabric/patterns. I wish I had an armoire to put it in. I wish I had space for a cutting table. I should sew something once in awhile.

You ladies with the sewing /craft rooms are lucky.
Maybee one day I can also have my sewing machine , knitting and other stuff in one room and within easy reach.
I have almost stoped sewing since it is hasle to get the sewing machine from the basement. and take up the dining room to sew.

How cool is that!?! I bookmarked to to show my 15yo. He thinks they're awsome. (Although he was disappointed in "Daleks" because he wanted it to blast the crap out of Rose, but instead it went all emotional and self destructed.)
